1. Features 2. System Specification 3. Operation Content
1. Features - Loop Circulating Pump Control - Heat Rejection & Addition Output Stages - Sensor - Alarm / Indication - Water Flow Switch Input - High / Low Water Temp Protection - Pre-cool / Pre-heat Protection - Outdoor (OD) Air Reset - Password Protection
1. Features - Loop Circulating Pump Control > Allows 2 loop circulating pumps with manual or auto lead lag control where operation is interchangeable - Heat Rejection & Addition Output Stages > Total 12 sets of data output can be pre-set as heat addition or heat rejection stages - Sensor: (i) Outdoor (OD) Air Sensor (ii) Water Sensor > 2 types of sensors used to sense the OD air temperature and water temperature
1. Features - Alarm / Indication > Output signal if error occurs in the system > Buzzer in the LCD panel activated when error occurs - Water Flow Switch Input > To detect the availability of water supply to the system - High and Low Water Temperature Protection > Measured by water sensor > When water temperature reached too high / low temperature, send signal and shut off the system
1. Features - Pre-cool & Pre-heat Protection > To provide protection when the temperature exceeding the too high / low temperature (when system is OFF) - Outdoor (OD) Air Reset > The heat addition ON / OFF limit setting of the system is able to be increased in respond to a drop in the OD air temperature - Password Protection > Password entry needed for authority to change / check the setting and configuration of the system

2. System Specification 2.2 Pump Control Function ii) Manual Mode: ii) Manual Mode: Only 1 pump is operates Either 1 pump can be set to operate as the system is on. The checking on the water flow switch is the same as the lead pump in automatic mode
2. System Specification Stages of Heat Rejection & Heat Addition Control Addition Control 12 Output contacts ( VAC) to switch ON/OFF the boiler and cooling tower. Each contact must be pre-set from the LCD keypad to select it either as a heat addition or heat rejection contact Heat rejection and heat addition temperature setting shall be distributed in sequence and continuous as pre-set from the LCD keypad
Stages of Heat Rejection & Heat Addition Control Addition Control 2. System Specification Example:
2. System Specification Stages of Heat Rejection & Heat Addition Control Addition Control Condition of the above example setting: (i) 4 heat addition output stages and 8 heat rejection output stages (ii) Temperature hysterisys of 3°C (adjustable) (iii) Heat addition stage temperature: 18°C Heat rejection stage temperature: 30°C
2. System Specification Stages of Heat Rejection & Heat Addition Control Addition Control Example 1: ON Temperature set-pointSelection OUT117°CHeat add stage 2 OUT218°CHeat add stage 1 The first boiler will cut in when the T w drops below 18°C The second boiler will cut in when the T w is further reduce to 17°C Note: T w = water temperature
2. System Specification Stages of Heat Rejection & Heat Addition Control Addition Control Example 2: ON Temperature set-pointSelection OUT330°CHeat reject stage 1 OUT431°CHeat reject stage 2 The first cooling tower will run when the T w goes higher than 30°C The second cooling tower will run when the T w is further increase to 17°C Note: T w = water temperature
2. System Specification Stages of Heat Rejection & Heat Addition Control Addition Control Example 3: ON set-pointOFF set-pointSelection OUT117°C20°CHeat add stage 2 OUT218°C21°CHeat add stage 1 OUT330°C27°CHeat reject stage 1 OUT431°C28°CHeat reject stage 2 If T w increase from 18°C to 21°C, the boiler will turn off If T w decrease from 30°C to 27°C, the cooling tower will turn off If 18°C < T w < 30°C, both cooling tower or boiler will not run Note: T w = water temperature
2. System Specification 2.4 Pre-cool & Pre-heat Protection Function when the system is OFF The function will active according to the Too High / Low temperature set Pre-cool / heat temperature hysterisys = 5°C (fixed) Open Heater 3 Open Heater 2 Open Heater 1 Close Heater 3 Close Heater 2 Close Heater 1 Pre_Tc: Pre_Cool Temperature (Pre_Tc = Too low protect temperature) Pre_Tc + 5 Pre_Tc + 3 Pre_Tc Pre_Tc -2 Open Heat- reject 1 Open Heat- reject 2 Open Heat- reject 3 Pre_Th: Pre_Heat Temperature (Pre_Th = Too high protect temperature) Pre_Th + 2 Pre_Th Pre_Th - 3 Pre_Th - 5
2. System Specification 2.4 Pre-cool & Pre-heat Protection Example: Too High Temperature: 43°C (adjustable) Too Low Temperature: 10°C (adjustable) * When the water temperature is at or below 0°C, all the heating stages will be ON, regardless the ON/OFF temperature setting
2. System Specification 2.5 Outdoor (OD) Air Reset Applicable for Heat Add set points at very low outdoor air temperature (start at 16°C) OD reset range: 1 – 5 °C (adjustable) OD Air Temperature (°C) OD Air Reset Range (°C) 0 - 5°C
2. System Specification 2.6 Emergency Protection Low / Too Low Temp Protection Low / Too Low Temp Protection System On Sound Alarm System Continue Running Yes System Off Sound Alarm T W ≤ T LW ? No T W ≤ T TLW ? Yes No Note: T W = Water Temp T LW = Low Water Temp T TLW = Too Low Water Temp
2. System Specification 2.6 Emergency Protection High / Too High Temp Protection High / Too High Temp Protection System On Sound Alarm System Continue Running Yes System Off Sound Alarm T W ≥ T HW ? No T W ≥ T THW ? Yes No Note: T W = Water Temp T HW = High Water Temp T THW = Too High Water Temp
